   When I was young
   I adored her
   when she wrapped me up tight
   held me close
   and I told her she smelled like roses.


   I still remember that day
   with my first crush
   sitting on a blanket
   having a picnic
   when it started to rain.


   We wrote our first names
   on the old oak tree
   and watched the baby ducks
   swim down the stream
   that was the best memory.


   Now it's 10 years later
   and I spot her in the park
   so I ask if she remembers
   when we went on our first date
   and I drew a rose around her name.
